I ordered the classic "Chocomil" with banana and my mom the vampiro (which is a healthy mix of beets, celery and other vegetables) and always is a hit. This place brings back so many memories and am so glad they haven't changed the pictures or counter tops. The service feels like your with family and funny how he remembers me when I was in my moms stomach to now being a grown woman. I will forever come to this location to remind me of my childhood and to grab a delicious "Chocomil" and wish them many more years to come and hopefully in the future I could bring my future children here to enjoy these liquados. Highly recommend stopping by for a fresh pressed juice, smoothie, or warm cooked meal.

I saw on their IG that they opened up a second location with indoor seating in Downey so I will have to try that next.

Raspados Nayarit is so nice, I came back twice (in two days)!!…read more On the first day, I tried their refreshing tejuino: mango and lime. The mango was so smooth and creamy, like the best sorbet I ever had. The lime is always my go-to flavor: it was tart and complimented the sweetness of the mango perfectly! I really appreciated seeing the staff put in effort to give me a rounded scoop, despite the hard ice-y, crystallized texture of the lime flavor. It reminded me of the anticipation I had as a kid, watching a raspado vendor scraping ice by hand. One bite, and I was very happy. :') On the second day, I came back with a friend and we shared nachos and a pork torta. We each got our own tuba compuesta, made with palm wine*, bits of strawberry, apples, and peanuts. It was a little tart, slightly fermented, sweet, and overall refreshing. We both loved eating the peanuts and fruits, which was so satisfying. It's now something I crave hehe The nachos were so nostalgic in a great way: how can you go wrong with melted cheese and pickled jalapeños? The torta was amazing: we followed the staff's recommendation to choose pork as our protein (there's also an option for chicken or beef). It came with avocado, tomato, lettuce, red onion, mayo, and a side of spicy salsa. The pork was tender and flavorful too. It's a small, cute space that has been a neighborhood staple for decades with some seating indoors and outdoors. They also serve paletas, ice cream, smoothies, and tamales (on weekends). Parking is residential and well worth the find!

I am giving this a four star because of the açaí bowls, and they typically only have one worker , so if you go when there is 2-3 people ahead of you, it will take about 10-15 minutes to get your drink.

It's a lovely mom and pop place with an al fresco patio....I enjoyed the ambiance 5/5 with a lot to captivate your eye....with a revolutionary but festive vibe. I did takeout however. Food was ready when I arrived, I was greeted warmly and appreciatively. 5/5 as for the food, overall, was homey and solid but not as delicious as the Catering service I experienced the day before at an East L.A. event. The asada burrito was well built but the meat preparation was ground and had consistency like ground beef chili, so this made me think it was a mistake in our order tho it's possible this was the asada. The chicken enchiladas were pretty and the chicken was shredded nicely. . I liked the half half presentation but it was dry and the tortillas were mealy. Needed queso inside maybe?? Also I loved therice and beans, but the portion of beans seemed like a 3rd of an ice cream scoop and didn't fill the takeout container. 2/5 I actually loved the beans from their Catering service and the generous portion the server ladled onto my plate. My restaurant serving seemed kinda skimpy in comparison. Granted it took 12 minutes to get my takeout home, but the overall experience of what I ordered was a bit disappointing though not fatal. I'd love to try their other items dining in....their caldo from the Catering was so amazing ( I believe it was beef en jugo soup.... and so were the sort tacos....in which tge asada was clearly steak not ground beef. Catering was 5/5. Restaurant takeout 3/5. The three flavors of agua Fresca during the catering was amazing pineapple mango, watermelon, and a cucumber drink. At the restaurant, they had a mango drink 5/5 and an orange/cucumber 2/5 (something black was on the bottom of the orange drink, ugh). This is a place I'll give the benefit of the doubt. That's how good their catering service, that inspired me to seek out the restaurant.

They are known for their cemitas (tortas) but it's too heavy for me so I tend to just order tacos from here. Within blocks/this neighborhood's tacos/burritos selections, think I enjoy Azteca for breakfast (very very different style but tortilla is bomb), this place Cemitas Tepeaca #3 for tacos (lengua and cabeza) is decent for locals, El momo (I like their original place but it's still decent, different style). This place makes it easy to take to go with condiments inside. Their buche, carnitas and asada were okay. Not bad but wouldn't get them again. $3 for jamaica drink. The green sauce is medium spicy. Condiments include lemon wedges (not lime), carrots onions, cucumbers as sides, and the usual onion ciltrano in the taco. Competitor truck - Taqueria El Pecas taco truck only serves mini bite size tacos, with everything else being dried? And you have to taste to add more salt if needed, as well as it's cash only. - If you go over the 710 to Boyle heights, there is Santa Rita Jalisco Taco Truck which is better with al pastor and such. - Also any of the trucks would be wayyyy better than.

The menu here features a bunch of different taco, torta, quesadillas, burritos, and all the other classics you expect from a Mexican restaurant. I ended up ordering a torta with carnitas and it only took like 4 minutes to make and get it to me. Now, I've always been a pretty simple person to please with a torta as they are usually big and packed with ingredients. This was somehow the most disappointing and lackluster torta I've ever had. The carnitas were boring and lacked any sort of flavour, while the rest of the sandwich together just didn't hit. This was a boring sandwich that I didn't enjoy eating. Overall, King Torta was a disappointment and not somewhere I'll be revisiting in the future. As the first place to serve a boring torta to me in LA, it left me wanting to eat somewhere else after.
